A woman has been charged with assaulting a journalist in a media scrum outside a Sydney court. The 31-year-old woman is accused of shoving a television camera into the face of Sky News reporter Amy Greenbank at the Bankstown courthouse on Friday, while Greenbank and other reporters followed her down the footpath. She was charged on Saturday with assault occasioning actual bodily harm and bailed to appear in court on 14 December. The reporter required some medical attention and posted a photo of the taped-up cut to Twitter, with the message: “Eventful day but I’m fine. Thanks for all your well wishes!”Amy Greenbank (@Amy_Greenbank) Eventful day but I'm fine.
